How the Hell did I end up Taking a Pilot License

Remember during early primary school years when we were always made to write an essay titled Cita-cita Saya or My Ambition in both language? Yea I've been there done that. I wanted to become a policeman (yea, the typical ambition for 7 year old kids those days). Why? Because of the awesome 9mm guns that were used to shoot bad guys. I was also influenced by the then popular TV show Gerak Khas on RTM2 at 9pm (yes, I still remember). As I grew older I realized that the show was full of rubbish same as RTM.

Then, at the end of my primary school days, I became interested in keusahawanan. Entrepreneurship as people call it. I was dreaming of big bucks easily as in filthy rich with big houses, supercars, 4 wives and endless enjoyment. It was such a nice thought though even for anyone.

Then in Form 3 I took up few engineering subjects as advised by my parents in which I don't have a single interest in. I pictured myself as an engineer which was in itself was ok for me. So I ended my school days as an engineering student.

So, how the hell am I here? Doing my CPL/IR with Frozen ATPL? How??? Well, first things first is that I don't go gaga everytime I see an aeroplane. I don't stare at them for a long time like some other aviation fanatics/wannabe pilots. I never had a lifelong passion on piloting at all. Heck, even the first time I flew (with MAS) I kept my cool. Once on a 13 hour flight I slept most of the time and didn't even tried to enjoy the view.

Here it goes, once I finished my SPM I searched for what kind of career that I should dive into. First choice was engineering as I have the experience in them and secondly was venturing into business. I find both of them lacking the excitement factor (at least for me). So I searched for other options. My parents were chatting about pilots and it quickly made me interested. The pay was a lot too for a Malaysian. My parents were very supportive in my decision and I enrolled into a flying school and here is where I am now. I'm loving it!

Before ending this post I'll share a quote from pprune : -

"There are only a handful of those who genuinely wants to be pilot. Others join the flying school because they are too rich and don't know what else to do in life."


Quite true :p
